My Name Is Suzie Ungerleider

Two-time Canadian Juno Award nominee Suzie Ungerleider officially opens a new chapter of her already distinguished and highly successful career with the release of her new album My Name is Suzie Ungerleider. It's her first since the artist formerly known as Oh Susanna announced that she would now record and perform under her birth name. Bursting with trademark evocative melodies and trenchant lyrics, it's the tenth solo studio album by the American-born, Canadian-raised artist revered for such landmark records as Johnstown, Sleepy Little Sailor and A Girl in Teen City. The decision to say "so long" to her long-time moniker Oh Susanna represents her recognition that the "exciting, dark, funny, charming" character that she thought was Oh Susanna was actually Suzie Ungerleider all along. "So here I am, leaving behind the trappings of a persona that gave me the courage to climb up onstage and reveal what is in my heart," she reflects. "It once protected me, but I need to take it off so I can be all of who I am."
